That is so precious! What a very lucky newborn! They are keepsakes! I still have my booties that my Nonnie knitted for me to this day.

Aww! So sweet - I love crochet - and crocheting. The bootees are just so delicious - how were they ever so small??

this is an absolutely gorgeous little set so doll-like.
Hard to believe they'll fit a newly born human being.

Wow, love this. So very girlie and gorgeous!! I am learning to crochet and told my husband I didn't think I would be able to do it. My chain stitch really looks ugly!!
